Dominica's 18% surge in visitors solidifies its global status as a top leisure destination

Travel

In the first quarter of 2024, Dominica has witnessed a remarkable 18% increase in visitor arrivals, marking a significant upswing in its tourism sector.

Tourism Minister Denise Charles attributed this growth to the concerted efforts of the marketing team and tourism stakeholders in promoting Dominica as a premier sustainable tourism destination.

“We have seen growth in our visitor numbers thanks to concerted efforts by our marketing team and tourism stakeholders to promote Dominica as a world-class sustainable tourism destination,” she said.

The island's unique positioning as an eco-adventure haven, coupled with its luxury wellness offerings, rich culture, and vibrant festivals, has resonated with travellers seeking authentic experiences away from the hustle of city life.

Dominica's efforts have not gone unnoticed as the island has been featured in prestigious publications, earning spots in Travel and Leisure's top 10 destinations to visit in 2024, National Geographic's must-visit list for nature lovers, and Time Magazine's annual compilation of the world's greatest places.

These accolades are further highlighted by the tourism minister that ”Dominica has been named in the list of the top 10 destinations to visit in 2024 by Travel and Leisure, a must-visit destination for nature lovers by National Geographic and Time Magazine’s annual list of the world’s great places.”

The tourism ministry is also focusing on fostering new relationships with various airlines to meet annual tourism growth targets.

“In the region, travel has long been a crucial component for fostering economic growth, cultural exchange, and social cohesion among our Caribbean Nations. The absence of LIAT has exemplified this so by enhancing air connectivity we can boost regional travel, promote multi-destination travel, and strengthen our economies,” Minister Charles expressed.
